Born and raised in Delhi, India.
Parents Dream: To see me as a Doctor.
My Dream: To pursue Arts.
End Result: Revolt.
Final Outcome: I graduated from Delhi University with Retailing Trade
The inclination and passion towards Arts made me jump into photography with the sole dream in young eyes to establish as an Advertising & Fashion photographer.
With no mentor and experience, a long struggle was inevitable.
Immense Faith, Strong dreams and an instinct to never give up, propelled me to make my space in the industry.
Worked with top advertising agencies, models, designers, art directors, magazines, stylists, make-up artists and production houses in India and abroad.
Migration: Year 2007-08 from Advertising & Fashion photography to Photo Journalism.
From controlled environment to candid and story based shoots.
Same camera made me see things differently.
Photo Journalism led me to a new passion called Street Photography around 3 years back.
Based in UAE the challenge got tougher to do street photography to produce work of international standards.
The challenge, challenged me more.
Bought a small fixed lens, mirrorless camera just to do street work. Made sure to produce at least one picture for myself every day. Learnt from my bad pictures.
My Mantra is to Unlearn to Learn more.
Presently, I do Street Photography with advertising and fashion work as my backbone propelled by the experience I gain while doing Photo Journalism.
